大學英語四六級考試閱讀理解部分是眾多考生最為擔心的部分。此部分得分高低，對整個考試的成功與否起著決定性作用。閱讀理解不僅考查學生的詞匯量、語法知識、閱讀速度等基本功，而且還考查學生判斷、推理、歸納、總結等綜合能力。閱讀理解題雖說對考生要求較高，但我們在深入研究歷屆四六級閱讀理解真題后發現，閱讀理解的命題考點和測試題型均有一定的內在規律。考生只要基本功尚可，然后掌握了這些規律，其應試技巧必將大大提高，從而在眾多強手中脫穎而出。
命題考點規律及其對應題型
分析研究英語四六級考試閱讀理解歷屆考題，可以發現命題者命制的考點是有一定規律的，且考點規律常與某種題型(主旨題、細節題、邏輯題、觀點態度題、詞義題)相對應。如果考生掌握了這些規律，就能在第一遍快速閱讀短文時，敏銳地捕捉到考點并能預測可能會出的題型。考生此時應用筆在這些可能會出題的考點輕輕劃上記號，等看完短文開始做題時，針對題干的提問，迅速找到做記號的考點，再仔細分析、答題。這樣，考生就能節省不少時間，從而避免開始做題時又要通閱全文盲目找考點。下面，我們結合歷屆四六級真題和大學英語四六級考試90分突破《閱讀與簡答》分冊(王長喜主編，學苑出版社，以下簡稱《分冊》)，將這些考點規律及對應題型歸納如下：
1、列舉處常考
列舉處指的是First,…，second,…，Third,…等逐步列出，然后要求考生從列舉出的內容中，選出符合題干要求的答案項。該考點常出題型是"細節事實題"。
例1. At third big difference between the drama
detective and the real one is the unpleasant
pressures: firstly, as members of a police force
they always have to be have absolutely in
accordance with the law. Secondly, as expensive
public servants they have to get results. They can
hardly do both. Most of the time some of them have
to break the rules in small ways.
Q: What's the policeman's biggest headache?
(A) He has to get the most desirable results
without breaking the law in any way.
(B) He has to justify his arrests while unable
to provide sufficient evidence in most cases.
(C) He can hardly find enough time to learn
criminal law while burdened with numerous criminal
cases.
(D) He has to provide the best possible public
service at the least possible
expense.(分析：選A。屬事實細節題。依據文章，與電影中的警察很不相同的是，現實中警察既要絕對遵守法(firstly,…),又要及時破案(secondly,…),這令他們很難兩頭兼顧，有時只有犯規。很明顯，B、C、D三項都與文章內容不符。)
在做此類細節事實題時，只要把細節考點(firstly,…secondly…)找到，對照選項內容，跟細節事實不一致的就不是選項。考生只需細心一點都能辨清細節事實，選對答案。
例2.I believe we have a three-part mission for
the present.First, we must continue to press for
improvements in the quality of life that people
can make for themselves . Second，we mast
investigate and understand the link between
environment and health. Third，we must be able to
communicate technical information in a form that
citizens can understand.If we can accomplish these
three goals in this decade，maybe we can finally
stop environmental degradation, and not merely
hold it back. We will then be able to spend
pollution dollars truly on prevention rather than
on barrages.
Q:which of the following is true according to
the last paragraph?
(A)Efforts should be exerted on pollution
prevention instead of on remedial measures.
(B)More money should be spent in order to stop
pollution.
(C)Ordinary citizens have no access to technical
information on pollution.
(D)Envionmental degradation will be stopped by
the end of this
decade.(分析：選A。屬事實細節題。專生只要看懂了文章內容三個方面，很容易排除掉B、C、D三項。)
